Lightweight Related Posts BCTeam adds a related posts section to your site without extra scripts, remote APIs, or tracking.
It is tested with WordPress 7.1, including the always-iframed post editor and Block API version 3.
What it does
- Matches posts by category, tag, both, either, or a specific category
- Fills empty slots with latest or random posts so the section stays useful
- Shows automatically after content or just before comments
- Adds a Gutenberg block with live preview and sidebar controls
- Adds the
[lwrpbct_related]shortcode and a theme template tag - Lets you hide the section on any single post
- Caches results and clears the cache when you save a post or settings
Layouts and design
- Five layouts: card grid, list, compact, mosaic, and image overlay
- Modern, minimal, and classic styles
- 1–4 columns, accent color, image size, and excerpt length
- Responsive on phones and tablets, with reduced-motion support
Ways to display
- Turn on auto-display in Settings Related Posts
- Insert the Related Posts block in the editor
- Use
[lwrpbct_related num="4" layout="grid"] - Call
<?php lwrpbct_the_related_posts(); ?>in a theme template
Developers can filter lwrpbct_query_args and lwrpbct_related_html.
